#22549, "boost gauge"


          

hey, I was just wondering.. if you've read any of my other posts, you know i'm a newbie.. but..

can a boost gauge be used for non turbo cars or is it just for turbos?

well, a boost gauge controls the boost put out by the turbo itself, so it wouldnt do anything on an NT car but sit there.

Mods? If God wanted us to mod cars, he would make aftermarket companies. Oh wait... yeah i better get to work on that.

sure you can do it, but don't expect the gauge to read into boost. Some gauges read vacumm too, and thats what yours will read if you dont have a turbo.. Unless you want to read your engine's vacumm, the boost guage is a waste of cash, but if you plan to go turbo in the near future you can get one, but HRC's kit already comes with one too...dont waste your money..
